Classy and almost timeless. Plaza Rivadavia brings memories of early morning crossing in the cold of winter to get on time to class at Colégio Nacional. I would love to see more grown grass. I can tell people uses it a lot more that 40 years ago. Maybe that is why has some areas going bold... But who isn't, right? Part of life. Happy to go across it again.
Great place to see Harris's hawks!
Big sidewalks and it has the most important monuments in the city. Beautiful old trees, such as ombú and gualeguay. Also some new palo borracho
It's a great place to drink some mate and watch the sunset.
Lots of memories from this enigmatic center of Bahia Blanca. It has the magic of classy times mixed the mystery of unrevealed pantheons. A must see.
Don't keep my love on the low low Keep my love on the low low You can throw me like a yo-yo But I promise I won't let go If you don't trust me by now, tell me right now What can I do just to keep you around? Love on the low low Don't keep my love on the low low

Somewhat remote but accessible by bus I loved the oily smell and all the old machines. The place is well laid out and they have a good range of tools, old train things, railway layouts and other stuff. I particularly liked the wooden band saw.
(Translated by Google) Visiting the Ferrowhite workshop museum was an incredible and unique experience. It is an educational, theatrical space full of creativity, ideal to enjoy with children of all ages. We loved the approach of protest and reflection in every detail, even in the bathrooms, which have beautiful paintings and tile decals. The entrance in the form of a ticket is a genius that makes the visit even more special. We enjoyed talks on interesting topics and wonderful models. Highly recommended for those looking for a different and well-thought-out activity. It's totally worth the walk. (Original) Visitar el museo taller Ferrowhite fue una experiencia increíble y única.

La entrada en forma de ticket es una genialidad que hace aún más especial la visita. Disfrutamos de charlas sobre temas interesantes y de maquetas maravillosas. Muy recomendable para quienes buscan una actividad diferente y bien pensada. ¡Vale totalmente la pena el paseo.

(Translated by Google) This old power plant looks like a castle and that's what it is called.

Touring the railway-port area is also good. (Original) Esta vieja usina parece un castillo y así se lo llama.
